Advice for prospective cat owners: Make sure you have someplace semi-distant, like a basement, to lock the cat away when you go to bed. Even the best-behaved cat I've known has had a conflicting sleep schedule and refused to stay quiet through the night.

Molly was staying at my suite while my parents' house was being renovated. I'm not sure I got any sleep on Sunday night, and the only sign that I did on Monday was when I looked at the clock and saw that I was going to be about two hours late for work. Good thing I had no new assignment waiting for me, and I think only my office mate even noticed. Also a good thing that the renovation ended sooner than projected, so Molly could go home last night. I still woke up later than usual today, but by hustling, I was only fashionably late to the office.

Heh, for a period of time when Taffy was little she spent the nights lonely because noone could stand to have her in the room overnight. Eventually it got to where she would be okay until about dawn. I've known some that wouldn't usually wake me up, at least if they could enter and exit by themselves (I tend to leave the door open a crack when visiting Jerome and Cheryl, to allow passage to cats). And there's the odd one, Christmas, Cheryl's cat, who at least got to be pretty okay with a human sleeping schedule (as a grown cat, when he was a kitten, he would turn into hypercat and bounce around and attack feet).
